NO PROBLEM: A 4-WEEK STUDY FROM THE OLD & NEW TESTAMENT ON LOVING OTHERS

WEEK 1 BIG IDEA: When you need forgiveness, don't just apologize.

SERIES OVERVIEW:

Apologies — they’re hard to give, but they’re sometimes hard to receive, too. When you’re the one who has hurt someone else, saying you’re sorry (and actually meaning it) takes work and practice. But when you’re the one who’s been hurt by someone else, things get even more complicated. What if you don’t want to forgive them? What if they don’t seem sorry? What if they won’t even admit they’re wrong? What if they’ve moved on, but you’re still not over it? In this 4-week series from the Gospels, we'll find out what it means to truly give (and receive) forgiveness. We’ll discover that when you need forgiveness, it’s not enough to just apologize. And when you’ve been hurt and need to forgive, we’ll explore the importance of shifting your perspective, remembering God forgave first, and remembering Jesus knows what it’s like to be hurt.

BEHIND THE SCENES: A 4-WEEK SERIES FROM THE OLD TESTAMENT ON ESTHER

WEEK 1 BIG IDEA: God Works Behind the Scenes

SERIES OVERVIEW:

The most important part of any play is what happens “behind the scenes.” There’s lighting, wardrobe, casting, playwriting — so much has to happen perfectly to bring the production together! In the story of Esther, there is a whole lot going on behind the scenes, too. In this four-week series, kids will discover the most important character in Esther’s story isn’t always center-stage, but can often be found behind the scenes working, helping, giving support and giving peace. (Spoiler alert: It's God!)

All of these sweet kiddos got to see a Donkey this morning as we learned about Palm Sunday!

Thank you to Stephen, Amanda and Daniel for bringing such a sweet girl!

Tomorrow is Palm Sunday!

Childrens Ministry will have a couple of special four-legged visitors join us as a way to help us understand more thoroughly how Jesus began his journey to the cross!

We can’t wait to see everyone at church tomorrow!

Hey Everyone,

This Wednesday December 29th, at noon we will be taking Christmas down in the childrens ministry area. We would love to have as many available hands as possible to help put Christmas decor away! If we can get at least 3 people to help taking everything down should go very quickly.

This Sunday is our second Xtreme Class serve Sunday! This occurs every 5th Sunday and gives our 4th-6th grade students the opportunity to serve in classrooms and around the church! The students love this time and are excited to volunteer!

We can’t wait to see everyone this Sunday!

Good Afternoon,

This is a reminder that we will be having our 1st Wednesday service tonight! Please come encounter and soak in the presence of God!

Also, we are needing someone to volunteer for the Treehouse class this Sunday. We are just one team member short of having every class full. The lesson is already made and worship will be set up. Let me know if you are interested!

If you serve on the Xtreme Team on Sundays we have new shirts for you!! Come see me this Sunday to receive your new shirt.

If you would like one of these new shirts, ask me about how you can serve in Xtreme 😉

Hey Everyone,

This Wednesday is First Wednesday and we are wanting to see if anyone is available to work the nursery. We have some sweet babies who need some cuddles! Who wants to cuddle a baby!?

Wild Week Day 4

We started the day with a message from our very own Pastor Cole who taught us how to use the gifts and talents we were given to be a light to the World!

We then spent the rest of the day at Hawaiian Falls! We were so busy having fun that we didn’t get any pictures but we did manage to capture the results of all the fun we had this week! 😴

Join us this Sunday, July 4th at 10 AM to see our amazing kiddos show off their Wild Week Worship Song and Memory Verse!

Yesterday, WILD WEEK Day 3, was “otterly” amazing!

We started the day with a message from Mrs. Kacie about Holy Spirit and how He is our helper who gives us amazing gifts!

We then got to spend the rest of the day at the Fort Worth Zoo!

We are ready to dive in to Day 4!

Day 2 is through!!!

We worshipped and heard a word from Mrs. Sharon Fincher! She taught us on how baptism helps “Seal the deal” with our promise to God after we accept Jesus in our hearts and how it makes us clean from the inside out!

We skated and roller bladed at Decatur Skate then spent the afternoon doing all the fun things at Urban Air

Here we come Day 3!
